Crybaby pastor Caleb Flynn had the nerve to quote scripture and deny murdering his wife while his own daughters tore into him for taking their mother’s life and destroying the family he claimed to love. At his sentencing for Ashley Flynn’s murder, the former American Idol contestant wept as his parents pleaded for mercy and insisted he was remorseful, even as he refused to admit what a jury had convicted him of doing. One daughter asked him to finally confess and made clear she had no plans to visit him in prison, where he will spend the rest of his life without parole. In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down Caleb Flynn’s sentencing, including his daughters’ blistering statements and Ashley’s father offering forgiveness to the man who murdered her.

Apparently, nine guilty verdicts still aren’t enough for Caleb Flynn’s mom, who insists her son is innocent and blames the media. The “worship pastor” and American Idol reject was convicted on all nine counts, including aggravated murder, for killing his wife, Ashley Flynn. So why is the murder weapon still missing, and could someone else know where it went? In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield sits down with Law&Crime’s Angenette Levy, host of Crime Fix, who was inside the courtroom, to unpack the mother’s finger-pointing, the lingering questions about mistress Alleigha Botner, investigative gaps, and what the cameras didn’t catch as Ashley’s family endured those vile texts.
